Summary of reviews

The First Years Modular Electric Steam Sterilizer is praised for its ease of use, quick sterilization cycle, and ability to accommodate multiple bottles and accessories. However, many guests report issues with rusting, burning, and lack of a drying feature, which leaves bottles wet and sometimes with a burnt smell.

    Lovernugget - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
    We got this as it was a more affordable option, but the after using - the steam vapors just sit on the bottles and will not go away. As soon as it finishes a cycle - we have to quickly move the bottles to a drying rack for ensure that the bottles FULLY dry. I would recommend spending more money to get another sterilizer that sterilizes AND dries.
